+1 do you have extra shells in the tank for them to grow into? if not they will kill each other

 

[Miss cruz]

Ahhh what shall i do shall i get him off ??? I have tons of shells in the tank

 

[cgthebeast]

Could seprate them with a net

It don't matter if you have a lot of shells in the tank that's the one he wants so he will try and take it.

 

[Miss cruz]

[Miss cruz]
